OCcam’Z Razor
The original 2000MHz DDR3 Blade series from OCZ comes at a very reasonable price, though it’s latencies are higher than it’s new brother. If you want 7-8-7-20 timings, you are going to have to spend three times as much. Those low timings are impressive for DDR3, let alone DDR3-16000 and hopefully the tighter timings will produce some speed increases. Is it enough to justify the cost?
